Hi Don,

I was wondering if maybe that was maybe a "Hammerite" or some other textured finish, although I can also see how a spattering spray can tip. I remember watching a video documentary about graffiti art on YouTube one time and it was mentioned that a lot of graf artists intentionally modify spray can tips in order to obtain various interesting effects. At any rate, your headstock came out looking great!

 

As for the tricycle, I found it tossed out at the local landfill a few years back and decided it was a keeper. I plan to semi-restore it with new tires and functional pedals. I'll probably just leave the paint job "Rat
Rod Rusty" like it is. :)

Hey thanks Pinkie,

That's actually just spray cans...sometimes they start to clog up and spatter, and I like it when they do.  :)

I want to know where you got that cool looking tricycle!

Neat looking finish. What did you use for that?
